In OotP, Draco and his friends enter the Room of Requirement after all of the DA
members (aside from Harry) have skedaddled; they are looking for evidence of what
went on and who was there. Lo, and behold, they discover Hermione's famous
parchment bearing the signatures of all of the members of the DA.
But isn't that just what the room would have contained? It's exactly what the
Inquisatorial Squad REQUIRED in entering the room, yes?
So why didn't Dumbledore simply point this out, rather than quitting to save Harry's
skin? Unless, of course, Dumbledore simply decided it was time for him to make his
dramatic exit....
